Often on summer nights we will fire up the grill and have a little family BBQ. My dad grilled up some ribs tonight, and I have to say that they were really good. We had peas and potato chips on the side. I'm hoping that maybe next time I can make some potato salad. The latest issue of Food Network Magazine came the other day, and it has 50 different recipes for potato salad. I hope to try it out soon.
This was actually the first time we had a real BBQ. Normally when we grill we usually have hamburgers or hot dogs. Sometimes we also grill chicken or steaks. We usually don't grill ribs. However, I will say that if you want to have a good BBQ, you have to have a good BBQ sauce. Unfortunately most BBQ sauces contain wheat or something else that I can't have. So I decided to make my own. It actually turned out pretty good.
Ellen's Sweet BBQ Sauce
Ingredients:
1/4 cup dark brown sugar
1/2 cup ketchup
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
dash A1 Steak Sauce
Directions:
Combine ingredients in a small bowl. Serve.
To be honest, this is something that I sort of just threw together. I used dark brown sugar because that was what we had. You can use light brown sugar if you want. I'm not sure it will make a big difference.
I hope that we get to have more BBQs later this summer. I'm planning an Asian BBQ for Friday. It's going to be a blast.

End of the Year
Hey guys,
Yes I know it's been awhile since I last posted. That's because I've been very busy with school lately. 3 honors courses and after-school activities have taken up a lot of my time, so I haven't really been able to do a whole lot of cooking. However, the school year is almost over. The last day is on Friday, and I hope that I'll be able to start posting my favorite recipes again.
So with that said, I have some things to share. First of all, I am now on Twitter, so feel free to tweet me with suggestions for new recipes or any questions related to this blog. Second, I have managed to track down some new recipes that I hope to share with you.
By the way, remember that Super Bowl Party that I did for my final exam in my foods class. Well here's the video of the pictures.
Well that's all for now. Hope I can share some recipes with you soon.
